“How do you not kill the daddy?” - Eric, on previous iterations of the script
On the season 15 premiere of We Hate Movies, last season’s VHS Trailer Game Champion, Chris Cabin, selects Twister as the redux title to kick things off! How entertaining is Phoffman in this one? Was the dad at the beginning of this movie able to surf that cellar door for a few seconds? What’s going on with that Cary Elwes accent? And is this movie responsible for breaking up Van Halen? PLUS: We start with the VHS Trailer Game Cameo appearance—and it is a laugh riot!
Twister stars Bill Paxton, Helen Hunt, Jami Gertz, Cary Elwes, Lois Smith, Alan Ruck, Sean Whalen, Scott Thomson, Todd Field, Joey Slotnick, Wendie Josepher, Jeremy Davies, Zach Grenier, and Philip Seymour Hoffman as Dusty; directed by Jan de Bont.
